I tried to install 8.1, and after downloading and appearing to install, my PC hang for about 2 hours.  I reboooted and recieved a message that 8.1 could not be installed, and reverting to 8.0.  Error message 0xC1900101-0x40019

This morning I again tried to install from the Store, and immediately got a message This app was not installed.  Error message 0x80070652

Any idea as to how to install 8.1?

    0xc1900101 - 0x40019

    What I did ?

    Turned off Eset Internet security 6

    Uninstalled Aero glass for windows 8 (glass8.berlios.de)

    Turned off Windows 8 Start Screen Customizer ( http://www.deviantart.com/art/Windows-8-Start-Screen-Customizer-v1-4-10-beta-337308916 )

    After this I installed Windows 8.1 without any problems.

    I'm getting the same message, and it again appears 8.1 is another MS work-in-progress, poorly designed, and even more poorly implemented. It's amazing that MS has us spend so much time playing computer programmer, when all they have to do is stay on top of their new stuff, to make sure it can work and be installed seamlessly.

    Thanks Tom.... I have tried everything on the forum and looked in a couple of other places as well... 

    With all due respect to all the MS Moderators, MVP's and other "knowledgeable people" in the MS community.... Houston we have a problem..... we are the ones trying to dig in and get it done... we could just go out into Blog land and trash MS ad nauseum.

    To our "friends" in Washington state..... Take the time to read our posts and take them seriously. We take our upgrades seriously. Help!

    How can this "quote-spam" post be your Answer, Chuck?

    AND PA BEAR, in lieu of trying to humiliate, castigate and put down one of the forum members why don't you try to help all of us with positive constructive advise, after all you are a MS MVP. you are wasting our time with your posts. Does MVP stand for  multiply vicious person? HELP US.

    hey all, check this out, our big brother microhardhead is really fit ti be tied.

    this unfortunately does not help us, but it shows how inadequate MHH preps these updates before releasing them to their clients. They just do not care.

    my favorite line is,

    """The update was pulled while it was "investigating a situation affecting a limited number of users","""

    yeah LIMITED, sure. right limited like 100,000's of innocent clients.

    and imagine how many are being affected by the glitch in the WIN 8.1 and WIN 8.1 PRO upgrade!!!!.

    sad sad sad..
